Hail to the chief! From a humble town builder to a worldwide phenomenon, Clash of Clans has grown exponentially since its 2012 release. With each new update, season and tournament come new mechanics – and more ways to rule an empire. Here are a few reasons we keep returning to our clan:
Timely troops
As the leader of a village, you build defences, hoard gold and elixir, then get ready for a fight! That means recruiting warriors – and there are a lot to choose from.
Clash of Clans’ toy chest is constantly packed with new units. Dig your high-level Yetis and Wizards? Just wait until you run into powerful troops like the Ice Golem or the shockingly aggressive Electro Dragon. Can’t break through a rival village’s walls? Siege Machines like the Battle Blimp and the Stone Slammer will shake things up – and tear things down.
’Tis the season
Looking for a challenge? Clash of Clans now features monthly season refreshes that bring new skins – and, yes, challenges – along with hefty rewards that can boost the power of your builders, troop training, research efforts and more.
Play your way
Between building armies and fighting off other players online, you’re given plenty to do. There are now modes aplenty, from single-player campaigns to team-versus-team Clan War and Trophy Leagues. Casual players can engage in no-risk Friendly Challenges, while the fittest fighters can test their mettle in Clash of Clans esports tournaments. No matter how you prefer to play, there’s a clash waiting.
